Where does uv download the Python interpreter to?

It is safe btw. The difference is that it returns two mutable references vs. one shared ref and one mutable ref. But as they noted, a mutable ref can always be “downgraded” into a shared ref.

Eh, it’s not uncommon to need this distinction. The Go convention is to return (res *MyStruct, ok bool). An Option type is a cleaner representation.

Gotcha. There is a split_at_mut method that splits a mutable slice reference into two. That doesn’t address the problem you had, but I think that’s best you can do with safe Rust.

Do you mean borrows for different fields of a struct? If so, that’s handled today - it’s sometimes called “splitting borrows”: https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/borrow-splitting.html

This comes with the added benefit that your environment is reverted as soon as you exit the Nix shell.

The problem isn't undefined behavior per se; I was using it as an example for strncpy. Rust is a no - in fact, the goal of (safe) Rust is to eliminate undefined behavior. Zig on the other hand I don't know about. In general, I see

strncpy doesn’t handle overlapping buffers (undefined behavior). Better to use strncpy_s (if you can) as it is safer overall. See: https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/string/byte/strncpy.html . As an aside, t

I think the solution is a build system that requires version pinning - options include Nix, Bazel, and Buck.

Very cool! Are there any blog posts or articles about Tangled? Docs seem pretty light.

Can you expand on why that’s the case? Suppose the Chinese gov has access to my robovac data. Given that I reside in the US, how is that worse than ICE having access to my data?

It was a capitalist corporation beholden to demands by domestic law enforcement and intelligence agencies. And just because a corporation is based in China doesn’t automatically make it some kind of government managed communist entity.

No. I was responding to the implied claim that mandatory service generally absolves a person of any form of complicity.

If you have an open mind & are arguing in good faith - which based on your wording is probably not the case - then I will respond to your points. Not wasting my time otherwise given that we’re two years into this calamity.

And then subsequently ruined peace with 3/4 (Saudi never normalized). > Islamists that hate Jews for not being part of their empire hate them. That’s not even close to reality, but whatever helps you justify genocide I guess.

They already have a major PR problem and are scrambling to fix it. What they don’t - or don’t care enough to - realize is that given the enormity of the crimes they committed (heck, still are committing!), nothing short of accountability an

Nice deflection. All I need to care about as a lowly SWE is that this attack injured thousands of Lebanese civilians. This is the real world, not a movie or simulated war game. And I would wager that you would immediately condemn such a b

I understand we won’t come to an agreement here, but I wanted to respond to two of your points: 1. Re: the term genocide, do you know why Palestinians have been insisting on this specific word to be used? Because genocidal intent was clearl

I have expanded in other comments in this same tree, but it was indiscriminate in timing, location, and possession (unless Israel individually verified possession). If it were a “discriminate” attack as you claim, then we wouldn’t have seen

So it’s either drop a bomb on them or mass detonate explosive devices? Love it.

So you understand that the proscription is the core problem, but in the same breath, still focus the blame on protestors for fighting this proscription? By the way, in case you somehow overlooked it, the whole point of people protesting und

Re: timing - They were triggered to explode en masse, which implies that there was zero consideration to minimizing civilian harm. Re: location - They exploded everywhere you can think of, while these targets were doing civilian activities

Growing tired of repeating the same response to the same points. Please see on of my other replies to sibling comments.
